Lost In Others Thoughts

prologue

It was a dark night and it was raining heavily. Me and my sister were in the living room waiting for our parents to come home. They would usually come home early but today that was not the case it was becoming late and my twin fell a sleep. I was still awake then a knock came at the door, mom said not to open the door but my mind said to check on who's it. So I peeped through the hole of the door, I saw a tall young man standing fully drenched in the rain, so I opened the door and looked upto him he looked to be in his late 20s he was wearing a rescue uniform.He then said he wanted us to take some where but I didn't want to go as he was totally a stranger. But he said he would not harm us, still I didn't believe him at all. Then he mentioned about our parents then something in me provoked to go with him.So I woke up my sister she was still sleepy and we got into the car it was still raining. He took us to the police station we waited outside he and one more officer came with him. The officer seemed very old, his face was wrinkled and he his hair was grey. His face got saddened as soon as he saw us that looked suspicious to me. My sister was still asleep, she was leaning on my shoulders. He kneeled down and took my hands he said "what i am about to say might change your life, but whatever comes in your life you must face it". He had concern in his voice which looked like he was worried about us. Then he held my hand tightly and said that our parents died in a car crash. They were not able find if this was done intentionally or not. For a moment I was not able understand anything my face and mind became blank like a black board when the teacher rubs it off. Tears rolled down my cheeks and didn't know what to tell to my twin she was still asleep on my shoulders we didn't have anyone for us it was only me and my sister. The recuses person took us home that night i didn't know what we were going to do because we were only seven. He told us to pack our things as we were going to the orphanage next. Just by night we became orphans and I was not able to believe it. After one week we had the ceremony a lot of people dressed in black came in and out my sister weeping next to me . The room was filled with tears so many friends my parents had but none of them would want to take us in. I was not able feel anything, my feelings became numb. I was not able to hear anything and everyone's voice was so clustered in my head. Me and my sister spent the night in a dull room.
